Dubya...

If you would rather not read my opinions about George W., please stop reading now and scroll down to look at the more pleasant things on this weblog.



I liked what Ted Kennedy had to say after the State of The Union was over...that the best thing George said was, "Madame Speaker." Everything after that was more of the same old gobbledygook that has plagued our country for six years.

Now that his direct action has killed more people than those who died on Sept. 11, his new strategy is to send in 20,000 more troops? I understand his need to finish what he started, but at what expense? More lives lost? Billions of dollars spent? We have more important needs here at home. We can't be the moral compass of the world, nor can we be the world's big brother. It's not fair that we have people suffering in our own country and we're out trying to save other countries. The Iraqi people have a completely different culture than we do, and our presence seems largely to be a major imposition. (On us AND them!)

Beyond that, what about taxing healthcare as part of our income? How much more taxed can we be? His plan is an insult to Middle Americans, who are working hard to maintain themselves where they are. This is another one of his plans that will hurt everyone except the rich.

I hate politics. More is done for those that have, and less is done for those who don't. I don't care if Barack Obama or Hillary Clinton or even John McCain becomes the next president, as long George is out of the office.
